Just Got Surgery Date Of July 25Th!

[hbritt 5]

My surgery was yesterday. I'm back home and doing well. Taking it slow on the liquids until my stomach can adjust. I was only able to have ice chips yesterday and started back with Clear Liquids today/60cc per hour. I should be able to go back to full liquids tomorrow and continue for two more weeks. The surgery wasn't bad at all. I had a brief bout of nausea yesterday but it was short lived after I was given Zophran. Don't plan on resting after your surgery. Between the vital signs, respiratory therapy treatments, nurse visits (i.e. check on IV, dressings, etc.) and lets don't forget the lab...it seemed like someone was in my room constantly. But the care I received was AWESOME! Good luck to each of you. I hope your experience is as good as mine was.

I'm grateful to have some pre-op stuff to do next week (labs and a PA-C meeting). This sitting in neutral for two weeks might give me enough time to get nervous. Thankfully I've got a busy life with work and kids and summer fun!

I'm July 31st as well, start my pre-op diet on Tuesday, and pre-op testin on the 19th. I have been "practicing" my pre-op diet since Thursday and the hard thing is getting all of my liquids in. But, I am super excited about this new chapter in my life very grateful to become a new "loser"!

That seems very familiar. I'm a wee bit impatient, too.
